It was obvious that they were indirectly criticizing Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan smiled. "Is Mother upset that I haven't come to pay my respects for so long? I wanted to come, but the doctor wouldn't allow it. He told me I had to take good care of myself after giving birth, otherwise I'd develop health problems and it would be even harder to conceive in the future. I think Mother would also think that having offspring is more important, and she wouldn't blame me for this, right, Mother?"
Retorting with words, Madam Song was so angry that her eyes turned green.
Song Xiuer bared her teeth and brandished her claws, "How dare you talk like that? Are you deliberately trying to anger Mother?"
Chu Yuan said, "My sister-in-law stays at her parents' home for more than ten days. Doesn't she need to go home and take care of household chores? Oh, I remember now. Brother-in-law Wei recently took a concubine, the tofu beauty from East Street. It is said that she is not only beautiful, but also an excellent housekeeper. Brother-in-law Wei has handed over the management of the household to her."
You shouldn't hit someone in the face, and you shouldn't expose someone's shortcomings, but Chu Yuan is different. She's going to poke the spot that hurts the most!
Upon hearing this, Song Xiuer immediately flew into a rage, "You bitch, how dare you laugh at me! I'll teach you a lesson today on behalf of Tang Yin!"
As he spoke, he swung his hand in a wide arc and slapped Chu Yuan across the face.
Chu Yuan couldn't take the beating, so she turned around and ran behind Song Kangshi, shouting "Mother, save me!"
Enraged, Song Xiuer lunged forward without a second thought. In the struggle, she slapped Song Kangshi on the forehead!
Song Kangshi was so shocked by the blow that she saw stars and clutched her head, groaning in pain.
Song Xiuer was so frightened that she let go, but her anger hadn't subsided. She put her hands on her hips and said domineeringly, "You, Chu Yuan! You did this on purpose! Look what you've done to Mother. When Tang Yin comes back, he'll teach you a lesson!"
Chu Yuan pouted, showing no fear whatsoever, but when she looked up, her eyes were watery and misty. "Sister-in-law, you were the one who was trying to hit me but accidentally hit Mother. Why are you blaming me?"
Sure enough, Song Tangyin returned shortly afterward.
Song Xiuer angrily blocked the man at the hanging flower gate, smearing and slandering him in one go, and did not forget to advise Song Tangyin, "Brother, your wife is really no good. She can't have children and her temper is terrible. What use is she? Mother is getting old and is longing for a grandson. If you still know how to be filial, then ignore her and find a woman who can bear children. Hurry up and complete the task of continuing the Song family line!"
